| Abstract | Reducing tilt-rotor noise by 12 decibels was a major goal of the Short Haul Civil Tiltrotor (SHCT) program. Blade vortex interaction (BVI) noise reduction was considered a key enabling technology that would allow tilt rotors to land in populated areas such as city centers, thereby relieving congestion at major airports. One of the SHCT objectives was to investigate BVI noise reduction techniques using an isolated, full-scale XV-15 tilt rotor in approach flight conditions in the Ames 80- by 120-Foot Wind Tunnel. |
